Abby Howard

Abigail Howard (born August 3, 1992) is an American webcomic creator and video game developer from Charlotte, North Carolina.

Junior Scientist Power Hour was a weekly episodic webcomic by Howard, usually focusing on topics such as her daily life and parodies of pop culture.

[5] Howard was selected as one of the twelve contestants for Penny Arcade's webcomic based reality competition show Strip Search.

While the art style is similar to Junior Scientist Power Hour, it features more detailed illustrations, locations, and a continuing story.

She describes her comic as partly being a response to uninspiring horror media, such as bland male power fantasies with uncreative monsters and hollow plots.

Howard has the entire story written out in advance; she prefers this method of story-telling, as she can insert Easter eggs and foreshadowing.

Visiting for their aunt's funeral, they find themselves caught between reconciling with their cousin, Tabitha, and solving a supernatural mystery tied to the town's past.

Like Scarlet Hollow, it is a horror-based visual novel, and follows a nameless protagonist ordered by an unseen narrator to kill the princess imprisoned within the woods.

[21] She wrote and illustrated the graphic novel Dinosaur Empire!, a volume in the Earth Before Us series from Abrams Books, published August 1, 2017.
